Some people think that simple words
can heal the wounds they have inflicted.
I have come to understand that mere
letters sprawled on a page,
or flowing from a mouth
can not erase the jagged scars
testifying to the internal gouges
forever bleeding from the heart.
Only stitches, formed from acts of reconciliation--
grace given freely to the offender-- can ever
bind the seeping wounds together,
and cause the scars to heal.
